ExxonMobil launches new oil for gas turbines

ExxonMobil Fuels & Lubricants has launched Mobil DTE™ 732 M – a high-performance turbine oil formulated to help oil and gas companies increase the productivity of their gas and steam turbines.

The new oil is recommended for use in Mitsubishi Heavy Industries’ (MHI) range of non-geared single shaft gas and steam turbines, and multi-shaft gas turbines. The oil is approved against MHI’s stringent MS04-MA-CL005 specification, which means it meets MHI’s protection requirements for long life and high temperature turbine applications.

During field trials and laboratory testing, Mobil DTE 732 M oil demonstrated an ability to enhance system cleanliness, deliver exceptional thermal stability and minimise varnish formation. Gas turbines play a fundamental role in liquefied natural gas (LNG) operations and transportation, and are used mainly in the oil and gas industry.  

Ayman Ali, Oil and Gas Marketing Advisor EAME, ExxonMobil Fuels & Lubricants, said of the launch: “The introduction of the new Mobil DTE 732 M is the latest addition to a line of oils designed to improve safety and productivity.”
